Catharsis
In my memory I founded my private library of memories…
I only selected the good things
that made and make me happy…
I had a good life
and I learned a lot from it,
how to avoid pain and then, laugh.
Many illnesses
of age
with my good and strong attitude
nothing will break me…
As long as I can I will walk paths,
and when I can’t anymore
I will fly high and far,
nothing will stop me…
And if I fly from this life
I will be a breeze to kiss
those who remember me
and those I knew how to love…
I will be verses,
I will be poems for whoever wants to remember me…

I like this. It’s sweet and positive and inspirational, especially as I suspect I can relate to much of what you describe as we age. Thanks for writing and sharing this poem with us.
